RMIT Creds
RMIT Creds are a suite of micro-credentials that help
develop your skill set beyond your area of study. These
credentials have been co-designed with industry to ensure
you’re ready for the changing world of work. They cover
subjects such as digital literacy, leadership, sustainability,
innovation, collaboration and communication.
Most Creds are available online and are short in duration,
ranging from 60-minute snippets to several hours of
learning. After you complete a Cred, you can claim a
digital badge, which is a verified certification and a great
way to communicate your achievements. You publish and
manage your badge using Credly, RMIT’s credentialling
platform partner. From there you can share your badge
with peers, clients, employers or on social networks
suchasLinkedIn.

Work-integrated learning (WIL)
WIL is an activity where you apply your academic learning
in a real-life situation with an industry or community partner.
Higher education and vocational education students can
complete a WIL activity, which is formally assessed for
credit towards your qualification. The type of WIL activities
you undertake will depend on your program and study
discipline, and can occur on or off campus. They may be:
■ work placements such as clinical placements, internships or
field education or professional practices
■ projects with industry and community-based organisations
■ art projects with exhibitions
WIL simulations are activities where you practise using
technology, equipment or activities that are not possible
to complete in an industry setting, e.g. moot courts.
